Potato-Pear Latkes

From EatingWell: November/December 2011

It’s easy to make crispy latkes for Hanukkah without oodles of oil. Adding shredded pears to the traditional potato mixture gives the latkes a hint of sweetness; a touch of fresh sage provides an herbal note that goes well with most holiday meals. Serve the latkes topped with a dollop of low-fat sour cream or enjoy them plain.

Unique, Delicious, AND Better for you!

This recepe was delicious. The entire family loved the unique and sophisticated flavor, ad the pear gave the perfect amount of sweetness without an overpowering flavor. They're great on their own, no need to add sauce. They're also much healthier than you're typical oil sponge latke.
The only con was that it took longer to cook than indicated. I advise turning the stove to medium-high, not medium.

Pros: Sophisticated, unique flavor with sage, healthier, pear adds just the right amount of sweetness
